PLEASANT FACADE ESTATES
Tommy and Troy, the long-battling fraternal twins of the premier old-family of Allium County.
When Tommy and Troy inherit the family farm, Troy tries to make an earnest living raising his family and running what's left of Tuckus Farm.
Tommy sells his half of the farm to land developers, makes ALOT of money. The land developers mow down the former farmland and erect a 33-acre McMansion housing development called "Pleasant Facade Estates". Tommy buys the biggest house on the highest hill overlooking his brother's property. All is fine until Troy builds a HUGE barn upwind/downwind from Tommy's house and the barnyard smell and flies
One of the ongoing battles between the brothers has been the placement of the sewage line for Pleasant Facade Estates. Troy is saying it's on his property.... he's in the process of suing my dad. My dad is counter-suing him.\par

HOME OWNERS ASSOCIATION
Debate over street being named Tuckus
TOMMY: As President of the Pleasant Facade Estates Home Owners' Association, I hearby declare that this meeting is over.
Pan out to reveal that everyone has already long-left the table.

DEE DEE: I thought that was a piece of hair
--------------
thw hoity toity housing enclave with the home owners association
Tommy wants a street in PFE named after him. Big discussion if it should be "street" or "drive" or "court" or "lane"
TOMMY: "Court"...hmmm I like the sound of that, like the king's court
OTHER: (smirking) Or like LEGAL court..
TOMMY: (gulping) I'll take Drive
the decision about the naming of the streets...
there is a petition to change the name of the street "Tuckus Trail". People are complaining that they are giggled at whenever they have to give out their address.
Tommy is highly insulted. That's a good, strong German name.
"The Eleeks" and the "Cogniscenti" (emphasis on SCENT and not in a good way either)
"The Eleeks" are that upper crust of society that hobknobs with The Power Plant, Senator Dick Tate, head of FECES (
cronies The land developers
The housing association is like a googly-eyed groupie gaping...
Tommy wants Google Earth to re-photograph their area... it still depicts a farmland, and Tommy wants it to show "Pleasant Facade Estates". It does show Tuckus Inn.\par

TOMMY: (off camera)
"Enjoy it??! You're
not supposed to enjoy.

Tommy storms into the room, bug-eyed with rage!
Barley's shirt slogan "It's OK to be OK"
TOMMY: All I can say is... "Get a job!!"
one of the neighbors is pissed off at the other neighbors, so he paints his house puke green. "once I'm inside, I don't haave to look at it"\par

TAMMY:

LEAZA:
Hey! What are you

LITTLER:

That's my rainbow
Leaza impatiently grabs the multi-colored bottle, and ends up mixing the colors together into a khaki-colored goo
Littler screams out as Tammy grabs the bottle and the colors all mix together
LEAZA:
(shuddering
in disgust)
This isn't rainbow

TAMMY: Oh for cryin' out loud...
